The Golden State Warriors return to Chase Center for Game 6 with a second opportunity to eliminate the Houston Rockets and close out their Western Conference first-round series.
After falling behind by 29 in Game 5, Steve Kerr pulled the starters and turned the focus toward bouncing back at home. Stephen Curry must lead the charge with the series now 3-2.
Here’s the featured Curry prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Friday’s Game 6:
Best Stephen Curry Prop Bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Stephen Curry Over 31.5 Points + Assists (-115)
Curry is averaging 23.4 points and 6.2 assists in five games this series, but he has been held to just 30 points combined over the last two games. With Jimmy Butler still managing a lower-body injury and Golden State’s margin for error shrinking, expect the Warriors to lean heavily on Curry’s shot-making and facilitation in this pivotal Game 6.
He played only 26 minutes in Wednesday’s 131-116 loss, finishing with 13 points and seven assists before Kerr pulled the plug. Expect Curry to bounce back — something he’s made a career of doing. He averages 27 points and 6.1 assists in 77 career home playoff games.
“There’s definitely something you can look back on as part of the journey, but that’s all well and great to talk about,” Curry said. “You have to go do something about it on the court.
“We talked about our group trying to do this for the first time together, and I love that challenge because we have an opportunity to write our own story in how we bounce back,” Curry said. “We’ve had a pretty resilient group over the last two months, and it has to show on Friday.”
Expect Curry to come out aggressive as a scorer and playmaker, giving this points + assists combo line strong value.
